Error in cpuinfo: prctl(PR_SVE_GET_VL) failed

[greg-flurry]

I successfully installed and used EasyOCR (Python) on my Mac. But, I really I want to run my project on a Raspberry Pi. I have Pi 4 with the latest 64-bit OS. Per the instructions for Python packages on the new OS, I created a virtual environment without "--system-site-packages", activated it, and installed EasyOCR using "pip install easyocr". The command appear to complete successfully, and doing "pip list" I see
easyocr 1.7.2
numpy 2.1.2
torch 2.5.0
torchvision 0.20.0

along with many others that were not listed prior to installing EasyOCR.

In the virtual environment, when enter "python" I get the '>>>' prompt. When I type "import easyocr" I get the response "Error in cpuinfo: prctl(PR_SVE_GET_VL) failed". I've searched unsuccessfully for a solution; I have no idea how to fix this. I've seen some hints that others have been successful using EasyOCR on a Pi 4, so I hope there is something I can do but just can't find it.

Any advice appreciated.

I think I fixed my problem. I found some hint somewhere about Pytorch being problematic. I installed torch==2.3.1 torchvision==0.18.1 torchaudio==2.3.1 and now it seems to work, though very slowly.
